Winding Things Up

I was late getting to the Center this morning, so things were in full swing when I got there. Karin had her loom out and was weaving on a scarf.

Linda was busy twisting the fringe on her scarf and Liz tried to sneak and get her warp off before I found out!

Judith has finished her first rug on the Studio loom and Laura is putting a warp from Sharons stash on her table loom.

One of the last things we need to get ready for the demo in a couple of weeks is to gather yarn for weft. Susan help find some cool yarn in the bin under the table and I went digging into the other place we put partial cones. One of the yarns that Susan found was multicolored and in pieces of about 20 inches, maybe the end of a warp? Karin set to work tying those pieces together and making it into balls to use as weft. At the same time, and for a completely different project Patty was winding a ball of very fine yarn from a skein that was too big for the swift, so she draped it over a warping board, and enlisted a couple of helpers to wind while she managed the yarn. I know that Marie is in this picture, but I think Linda took a turn as well.

Now for Show and Tell, Marilyn had a frustration at her house, something about a bathroom space that wasn't really able to be a bathroom space after all. Well, she took it out on her Inkle loom! Oh, and speaking of Inkle looms, I just got the cutest little Inkle loom in the mail yesterday! I haven't warped it yet, but that will happen soon!

Carol, our fearless leader will be back with us next week, we are so glad! Until then this is Tina, for all.
